Will Pope Francis Meet with P.A. Muslim Sheikh Who Called for Exterminating Jews?

During his upcoming visit to the Holy Land, as a matter of protocol as the head of the Catholic Church, Pope Francis is scheduled to meet with Israel's two chief rabbis and the most senior religious figure in the PA, the Mufti Sheikh Muhammad Hussein.

The Pope and the Mufti promote messages that are fundamentally opposed: the Pope preaches love and peace for all of mankind, while the Mufti preaches hatred and violence against "the enemies of Allah." In 2012 for example, the Mufti taught that Muslim destiny is to kill the Jews. During another speech he taught that Jews were "enemies of Allah," and also said the souls of homicide bombers "tell us to follow in their path."

It wouldn't surprise me if Francis meets the Mufti. The PR apparatus and the protocol dept at the Vatican has a history of being incompetent although this would be a new low. If it happens, kiss the Jews good-bye as far as any meaningful future "Dialogue TM " is concerned.
